hey everyone. i am new to the website so im not sure how all of this works. i have a question that maybe someone can answer. i finished LVN school in december of 07 and took my nclex in jan only to find out that i didnt pass. i live in texas and here you have to wait 45 days to test again. when you fail your nclex in texas, you lose acess to your permit to work as a graduate vocational nurse. so i studied every single day and took my test again yesterday. we have the quick results here so i should find out at 8am tomorrow. just have a question. i stopped at 85 and feel like i was guessing at alot. well i have checked the website about 100 times today and my results are still not ready. i went to look on the BNE website and my license isnt on there, but my permit is back on there. im wondering if anyone has some advice on what this means or any advice at all that would help.

I think it means you have to wait till 8am tomorrow!!! best of luck....sounds like you had the plan down right, study every day...I am sure you did just fine....my advice, rent a good movie and order a pizza tonight and try to get your mind off of it...Sure easier said than done. I know....

when i finished school, i had a permit i could work with for 90 days but when i failed my nclex, it got removed from the BNE website and i could no longer work as a gvn. does anyone know why today my permit would be back on the BNE website?

Did you check the website last week? Was it there then. In my state the web site says "pending application" as soon as they get your check and give you permission to test. If you fail, your name goes away entirely, once you reapply and pay your money to test again, your name reappears with the words "pending application".

Best of luck...the anticipation is torture!!!
